The NMC1000 is a Wi-Fi® SoC that includes all RF and Baseband circuitry
required to provide IEEE 802.11b, g, n-compliant operation including all
necessary power amplifiers and switches. By leveraging Newport Media’s
advanced OFDM baseband and RF CMOS technology, the NMC1000 offers levels
of performance, power consumption, and external bill of material (BOM)
typically associated with the world’s leading connectivity solutions
providers.

“As smartphones replace feature phones as the norm in wireless markets
throughout the globe, there will be great demand for connectivity
solutions that provide dramatically lower bill of material costs without
compromises in performance,” said Mohy Abdelgany, president and chief
executive officer for Newport Media. “Newport Media has a
well-established track record of supplying best-in-class OFDM SoC
solutions into highly price-competitive markets and looks forward to
expanding its connectivity offering to address this dynamic and rapidly
growing market.”
